The judge accepted as fact allegations made by plaintiffs in the suit, which we will systematically show to be patently false.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just some of the catastrophes accepted as fact by the judge included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>More heat waves and extreme summer heat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Days above 90 degrees increased by 20 days between 1970 and 2015<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increased drought and lower precipitation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will soon have a complete rebuttal to the Montana lawsuit. First, the plaintiffs cherry-picked the time frame of 1970 to 2015 to select days above 90 degrees Fahrenheit when the full data show that there has been no discernible trend since the 1920s. In fact, the period between 1920-40 looks remarkably similar to the most recent several decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"723\" height=\"422\" data-attachment-id=\"274296\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=274296\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/0Montana-per-cent-above-90-degrees-1024x597-1.jpg?fit=1024%2C597&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,597\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"0Montana-per-cent-above-90-degrees-1024&amp;#215;597-1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/0Montana-per-cent-above-90-degrees-1024x597-1.jpg?fit=723%2C422&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/0Montana-per-cent-above-90-degrees-1024x597-1.jpg?resize=723%2C422&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-274296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/0Montana-per-cent-above-90-degrees-1024x597-1.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/0Montana-per-cent-above-90-degrees-1024x597-1.jpg?resize=300%2C175&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/0Montana-per-cent-above-90-degrees-1024x597-1.jpg?resize=768%2C448&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 723px) 100vw, 723px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Increasing drought and lack of precipitation?
